Re: [pinhole] Press Camera and Pinhole

Dwight,

Nice camera! Coincidentally, I resorted to building the same type when I
gave up on my Graphic. It's adapted from the Bender 4x5 kit to fit a "23"
6x9 rollfilm back, which appears to be the back you use also. Looks very
similar, except I don't have that ingenious mitered piece that allows you to
slide the back in. Mine, I have to hold together with rubber bands. I hope
you can post your resulting images sometime.

Mike
